The Chevy Equinox is related to the GMC Terrain, but GMC offers more luxurious or off-road variants of its model.
Crosstown rival Ford overhauled its Escape last year for a better car-like feel and better efficiency, and it includes a hybrid option.
The heavyweights in the class are the RAV4 and CR-V that offer good looks and good space—and hybrid powertrains.
We like the Subaru Forester, the sure-footed pick in the class, with good value and excellent safety scores.
